Amazon associates affiliate program

There are 500 million blogs on the Internet. However, there are fewer opportunities to monetize them. Today we will talk about one of these opportunities: Amazon Associates program.

Imagine you review books. You have lots of readers. Put an Amazon link on a book’s page in your article and get a commission for its purchase. Make a site with weird Amazon products and get money as well. You don’t have to advertise anything! Here’s a case study of an affiliate making $2000 monthly with Amazon Associates.

In this article, we answer several questions so that you could decide whether this method of generating income is for you.

Who is this program for?

Bloggers, vloggers and YouTubers usually earn money with Amazon Associates. If a user clicks on your affiliate link and makes a purchase, you will get a commission on that item. The most convenient kind of blog is a review blog. A customer wants to consider the advantages and disadvantages of the product before making a purchase. It will be perfect if your blog helps to make a choice. The best option is when you are an authority in your field and have devoted readers.

With Amazon Associates, you also get a commission if the customer buys anything else within 24 hours. Many sites were successful because they reviewed unusual items. Users got interested, went to Amazon and bought something else.

How many readers should I have?

Kunal, who reviews baby care products, suggests that you should have at least 40,000 visitors on your blog or site. “Let’s assume that only 1% of visitors will buy the product. If your commission is 100 INR ($1.5), then for 400 visitors you will get 400*100, i.e. 40,000 INR income ($600).”

What if I have no blog or site?

You can use a landing page. In your Amazon account, leave a link on a landing page where you will attract traffic from other sources — target or contextual advertisement.

There is an example of a successful mattress landing page.

Is the registration process difficult?

It is not but the moderation is strict. During the registration, provide reliable information since it is thoroughly checked by Amazon. Account approval may be extremely difficult because sometimes it is not clear why Amazon rejects the application. Fill in the registration form carefully and pay attention to your website description.

It is easy to sign up but you cannot reap the benefits of the program right away. You may start making money and if you are accepted you will get that money. If not, you’ll get nothing.

To avoid the rejection of your account when you started to earn money, read Amazon’s rules.

How much traffic should I have?

It’s not necessary to have huge traffic volumes in the beginning. However, according to Amazon’s policy, you should make at least one sell in three months.

How much money do people make?

The income is not limited. It may be $0 or $25,000. However, it’s unlikely than you will earn more than $5 in the first months.

Some examples:

A guy earns $4,500 on tech reviews. He managed to secure this income in four months.

$120,000 total for a photography site. There are articles about how to choose a camera and equipment for it.

Advantages
